The Department of Education plays a pivotal role in the development of the human resources of St. Maarten. Therefore listed among the goals and objectives of the Department are the improvement and consistent development of the level of education of the community of St. Maarten.

One of the programs through which these goals are attained is the study financing  program, funded by the government of St. Maarten. Through this investment in the island's human capital, our government allows qualified students the opportunity to upgrade their knowledge and skills. Hence the potential of the citizens to contribute to personal as well as national development is maximized.

In order to provide you with information pertaining to the study financing-program as well as other related and relevant issues, this web-site has been created.

Please use this web-site as a first point of contact with our Department. Visit the site frequently and make use of the services it offers.
